:rofl

I added it as a stylistic element to Pristine Light's header. I think it's a great picture by cjohn... But it's no CSS element :D

But it's no CSS element :DLOL - well, I may have seen it there, but I have also seen it when viewing the source of a couple of other pages, too. I swear it was in the CSS code! haha - I need to quit looking at codes. I'm going buggy!

That's on Cjohn's Pristine Light page (I should know, I wrote that :wink)...

Do you see the header with the fiddleneck in the background on Pristine Light? What I was doing on the home page there was moving up the elements so it would look like the fiddleneck would be coming out of them rather than just starting from thin air.

In other words, I was referring to a graphic element in the comments. That's all.

well, i may have looked silly for asking, but at least i won't use it now that i know it really doesn't do anything i need :rofl
